Little Annoyances

t

That's right, people, here in Australia we keep left.
Speaking of which, here are a few common courtesy rules that help everyone:

1. Keep left on footpaths.

2. Allow passengers to disembark from a train before you get on.

3. Leave a bus from the rear entrance and enter through the front entrance.

4. Keep train doorways clear.

5. Old ladies and pregnant women first!

6. Allow people space to pass on on the escalator/travelator.

7. Lower the volume on your music player so other people don't have to hear your thrash metal.

8. Avoid shouting across carriages, laughing loudly and continuously, etc, anything that disturbs other passengers.

Darkness, be my friend ...

Darkness, be my friend

When light goes out, all friends long gone,
Darkness cloaks where no light is shone.
But when light is there in your heart,
Of it darkness can have not part.

Do not fear the gloom, embrace it,
For when alone in the dark you sit,
No friend there is but gloom within,
Then shadow itself will be your kin.

Say only, "Darkness, be my friend."
And darkness will not be your end.
For shadow cannot pierce the light.
Does not the day strike out the night?

If shadow shunned is shadow feared,
So surely loved is shadow neared.
Presently light may darkness rend.
'Till that time, Darkness, be my friend.
